Week ending 31st March 2023

 Happy Easter to you all!

The children had a fabulous final week of term and we ended with games and dancing!

Reading Books/Book Bags

Please could you send the book bag in every day from now on as we have changed our process and it will make it easier to have everything here every day. Please ensure that your child's reading book, library book and reading record are in the bag every day.

D and T project

Thank you all for supporting your children with their design project. The houses are amazing. The children learned so much from this and after Easter they will evaluate their products.

Every child presented their home to the rest of the class and were thrilled to answer questions on their designs.

They were all so interested in the huge variety of homes that were made and they loved praising each other for their finished products.

We will be sharing the homes in our class assembly in May.

Class Assembly

Year One will present their work to you during our class assembly on Friday 19th May at 9am. I am giving you lots of notice in case you need to make arrangements. It will last for approximately 30 minutes.

Next Term

Geography field trip

As we learned about farms this term we will be visiting Willows Farm on Thursday 27th April. The children will need a packed lunch, two drinks and will need to wear school uniform for the trip. They can wear wellington boots or trainers, depending on the weather at the time.

Next term we will be learning the story 'Jack and the Beanstalk.' The children will sequence the story, create puppet shows of the story and role play the characters.

We will be learning to count in 2s, 5s and 10s. We will be noticing the patterns and will use coins to complete the project.

We will begin a new topic about famous queens. The children will be finding out about monarchs and where they live. This will be a great topic to carry out at the time of the King's coronation.
